My Korean has greatly improved after this program. The Korean class at Yonsei University was much more fast-paced and intense. Also, I used Korean a lot with waiters at restaurants and taxi drivers. A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review

I think that I learned more from spending my time outside of campus than I did in class. I gained street skills and shortcuts to adapting to an unfamiliar culture. I definitely think that it was a worthwhile experience and would not hesitate to do it again if the opportunity presents itself. A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review

It was like seeing what I could have become if my family never moved away. I could see firsthand how similar and different I was from Koreans liv... Julia K - Brandeis University View Entire Review
I gained a little more insight into my personal background as a Korean-American and a look into cultural customs. It was worthwhile and a memorable experience! The only reason I wouldn't choose the same program is because of personal reasons; as a Korean-American I wish I had chosen somewhere a little more out of my comfort zone...

Learned about the culture, food, and language. It was worthwhile! A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
I gained a more complete sense of identity my time abroad. It was eye-opening, to say the least, to explore my Korean roots as a Korean-American college student. It definitely tied up a lot of loose ends while opening up more questions. esther.lee.7777019 - Brandeis University View Entire Review
